Great cast, Bad plot, not worth it
I watched Hwarang a while ago and I was just dissapointed. To be totally honest I wached it bc of the cast, we have Park Seo Joon, Go Ara and idols like Park Hyung Sik from ZE:A, Choi Minho from Shinee and V from BTS. The acting itself was not bad, but the plot was just terrible, I hated Go Ara's character, Ah Ro (don't get me wrong, i like Go Ara but her character was just useless) and I just didn't felt the chemistry between her and Seo Joon, the love triangle was also pointless tbh.If we talk about the OST, it is not bad but is not great either, I can highlight only 3 songs - It's definitely you by V (ofc), Dream by BOL4 and Our Tears by Park Seo Joon, considering that the full album is made of 11 songs (leaving out the instrumentals) it's not that good.
Story is good during the first episodes, however, it becomes boring when they mainly focus on the love triangle. I expected a lot from this drama considering how famous the actors are but it is just one of the dramas that you will forget as years pass.
